This movie has so much depth and contains a great primary plot and even better sub plots. The writing is remarkable, thorough and very impressive. The character's inner demons are well portrayed as is their struggle to overcome them. The acting is out of this world across the board. You feel for every character; and if anything happens to anyone, you feel personally hurt. The villains were also excellent as is the outcome of each of them. The settings and cinematography is outstanding and there is impressive use of lighting. The action scenes are remarkable and the fight choreography is award winning caliber. My only complaint is an awkward love story that is obviously in here to show maturity and self discovery but I could have done without it. Lang, Brent; Shafer, Ellise (February 26, 2023).

Morbiustook about two and a half months to come to DVD, while The Invitation will be released two months after the theatrical release. That latter is likely cut a bit shorter due to it being a horror movie. An October release date is perfect for horror movies.
